Thickness Uniformity of Thin Films by Magnetron Sputtering

Report
[vc_row][vc_column width="3/4"][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width="1/2"][vc_column_text css=""] Thickness Uniformity of Thin Films by Magnetron Sputtering Magnetron Sputtering is a highly advantageous method for depositing thin films of materials on a substrate for research and industrial purposes. Thickness Uniformity of thin films is an important parameter in science and industry, which can be obtained by magnetron sputtering to a high degree of precision (<2% of thickness variation over the substrate) [1]. Vac Coat Sputter Coaters can sputter materials by magnetron sputtering method through precise control over chamber pressure, source to substrate distance, and substrate rotation to enhance thickness uniformity of the coated film.

[vc_row][vc_column width="3/4"][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text] Electrically Conductive Cu Thin Films by DC Magnetron Sputtering Many studies focus on the growth of copper microstructure as a function of the coating method. The increase of resistivity of copper thin films is due to various phenomena such as scattering from defects (vacancies, dislocations, grain boundaries) and also scattering from the free surface, bottom interface, and side-wall interfaces of the films. In this way, the mean free path of electrons decreases, which leads to an increase in resistance.

Pulsed DC Magnetron Sputtering

Report, Sputter Coater, Sputtering
[vc_row][vc_column width="3/4"][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text] What is Pulsed DC Sputtering? Pulsed DC Magnetron Sputtering is a physical vapor deposition method used to make thin films of various materials including conductors and insulators. It is especially preferable in reactive ion sputtering where the risk of arc discharge damage is high. The arc discharge is a result of charge accumulation on the target and is harmful to both the thin film and the power supply.
